Modification principle and process of modified bitumen

Bitumen is a polymer mixture composed of asphaltene, colloid, aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons. Asphaltene is dispersed in aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons with the help of colloid to form a colloidal structure. When the asphaltene content is low, the bitumen has good adhesion, plasticity and fluidity, but poor temperature stability and elasticity
Bitumen modification principle:
Bitumen is a polymer mixture composed of asphaltene, colloid, aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons. Asphaltene is dispersed in aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons with the help of colloid to form a colloidal structure. When the asphaltene content is low, the bitumen has good adhesion, plasticity and fluidity, but poor temperature stability and elasticity. The polymer modifier is similar to the asphaltene in bitumen. Its addition, after fully swelling with bitumen, absorbs the aromatic hydrocarbons and colloid in bitumen to form a new colloid, which not only retains or increases the adhesion, plasticity and fluidity of the original bitumen, but also improves the temperature stability and elasticity of bitumen, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the road performance of bitumen.
Bitumen modification process:
The modifier and additive are evenly and finely dispersed into the matrix bitumen, and the contact area between the original bitumen and the modifier is increased as much as possible to ensure full swelling and development, which not only improves the utilization rate of the modifier but also makes the original bitumen performance the most perfect improvement.
The modified bitumen complete production equipment has the following advantages:
1. It is suitable for a variety of modifiers, such as SBS, EVA, PE, etc.;
2. The ratio of modifier to bitumen can be set at any time according to user needs;
3. The production volume of each cycle can be set arbitrarily within the maximum productivity;
4. The modified bitumen has high quality, and the modifier has a small particle size and uniform distribution after emulsification;
5. The production process is fully automatically controlled, and the production records can be queried at any time;
6. The weighing system is accurate in measurement, and the weighing error is less than 1%;

    The actual operation steps of drying drum of asphalt mixing equipment: 1. Pay attention to routine inspection; 2. Proper operation steps; 3. Effective maintenance.
    Drying drum is a cylindrical device specially used for heating and drying stones in asphalt mixing equipment. Proper application and maintenance of drying drum can maximize the performance of drying drum, increase its service life and reduce application cost. Let’s take a look at the actual operation steps below.
    1. Pay attention to routine inspections
    The asphalt mixing equipment drying drum has been tested and inspected before leaving the factory, but it will be subjected to vibration and vibration during transportation to the construction site. A comprehensive inspection should be carried out before use: check whether all anchor bolts are tightened; whether all key pins are properly driven; whether all drive devices are adjusted according to the manufacturer’s instructions; whether all pipe connections are appropriate and whether the three-way joints are reliable; whether the entire equipment is fully lubricated; start the motor and check whether all parts can rotate steadily in the correct rotation direction; whether the pressure gauge can work normally and whether the valve is adjusted to the correct working pressure; whether the burner ignition mechanism is available and whether the gate valve is open.
    2. Correct operation steps
    After the equipment is started, it is recommended to control the machine manually at the beginning, and then switch to the automatic control mode after achieving the required production volume and pouring temperature. The stone should be dried and have a stable moisture content as much as possible so that the stone can maintain a stable final temperature when passing through the drying drum. If the stones delivered to the drying drum change frequently and the moisture content changes each time, the burner should be adjusted frequently to compensate for these changes.
    The stones directly from the crushed stone have a relatively constant moisture content, while the stones from the outdoor storage yard have a higher moisture content, and the moisture content of different piles varies greatly. Therefore, it is best for the stones to come from the same source.

    Never stop, escorting the quality of road construction
    Inheriting decades of technical accumulation, asphalt mixing station has become an indispensable part of building and maintaining high-level roads. This seemingly ordinary device carries the important mission of ensuring road safety and improving driving experience. As the core technology of modern road engineering construction, asphalt mixing station goes all out to continuously strive for a better, safer and more efficient travel environment.
    Fast drive, tenacious progress
    Asphalt mixing station plays a role in road engineering. It uses mature technology and processes to ensure the smooth progress of road construction with efficient mixing capacity and stable production quality. From conveying raw materials to the precise proportion of oil and aggregates, to the uniform mixing of the final product, the asphalt mixing station, with its professional working attitude, ensures the quality and stability of road materials, and provides a solid foundation for the construction of high-standard road projects.
    Innovation leads, environmental protection takes the lead
    Asphalt mixing station plays an important role in promoting sustainable development. Faced with increasingly urgent environmental protection requirements, mixing stations continue to innovate technology, improve production efficiency, and also pay attention to environmental protection responsibilities. By introducing advanced dust removal and purification devices, intelligent equipment control systems and combustion equipment, the asphalt mixing station effectively reduces environmental pollution and makes positive contributions to protecting the surrounding ecological environment.

    1. Small asphalt mixing equipment should be set on a flat ground, and the front and rear wheel axles should be padded with square wood to fix the overhead tires to prevent sliding during use.
    2. Check whether the transmission clutch and brake are sensitive and reliable, whether the connecting components are worn, whether the track pulley is outstanding, whether there are obstacles around and the smoothness of each part.
    3. The rotation direction of the mixing drum should be consistent with the direction indicated by the arrow. If not, the motor wiring should be corrected.
    4. Small asphalt mixing equipment should implement secondary leakage protection measures. Before use, the power should be turned on and the empty vehicle operation is qualified before it can be officially used. During the trial operation, the mixing drum speed should be checked to see if it is appropriate. Under normal circumstances, the empty vehicle speed is slightly faster than the heavy vehicle (after loading) by 2-3 revolutions. If the difference is large, the ratio of the driving wheel to the transmission wheel should be adjusted.
    5. When stopping use, the power should be turned off and the switch box should be locked to prevent others from operating it by mistake.
    6. When the concrete mixing is finished or it is expected to stop for more than 1 hour, in addition to draining the remaining material, pour stones and clean water into the shaking barrel, start the machine and run it, rinse the mortar stuck on the barrel and unload it completely. There should be no water accumulation in the barrel to prevent the barrel and blades from rusting. At the same time, the dust outside the mixing barrel should be cleaned to keep the machine clean and intact.
    7. After starting the machine, always pay attention to whether the operation of each part of the mixer is normal. When stopping the machine, always check whether the mixer blades are bent and whether the screws are knocked off or loose.
